How these estimates are made

Ashes of Creation

We estimate that about 2,200 people play Ashes of Creation on a typical day (most likely between 510 and 6,500), based on data from Nov 11, 2026. Around 400,000 accounts (between 310,000 and 930,000) have played it at some point. Ashes of Creation is on Steam, but Steam covers only part of its players, so the estimate also draws on the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.

Guild Wars 2

We estimate that about 100,000 people play Guild Wars 2 on a typical day (most likely between 61,000 and 170,000), based on data from Nov 11, 2026. Around 3,200,000 accounts (between 2,100,000 and 4,900,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.
